Abstract Mineral nutrient malnutrition, especially deficiency in selenium (Se),
affects the health of approximately 1 billion people worldwide. Wheat, a staple
food crop, plays an important role in producing Se-enriched foodstuffs to increase
the Se intake of humans. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of different Se
application methods on grain yield and nutritional quality, grain Se absorption and
accumulation, as well as 14 other trace elements concentrations in wheat grains.
A sand culture experiment was conducted via a completely randomized 3 × 2 × 1
factorial scheme (three Se levels × two methods of Se application, foliar or soil… More >
